About this tag
The gds cross-government tag covers discussions about the UK Government Digital Service's cross-government experiments and initiatives, particularly those involving Microsoft 365 Copilot. Recent content highlights a paradox from pilots: staff perceive time savings and convenience from Copilot, but independent measurements show no clear productivity improvement. This gap between perception and measured impact is a key lesson from the Department for Business and Trade's 1,000-user pilot and the larger GDS cross-government experiment. The tag is relevant for public-sector IT teams evaluating generative AI tools in government settings.
